Thanks! 😀 And yeah, names are difficult, especially with villains! You want something evil, yet not too obvious…

Bixwort (brother of Maxwort? Former criminal?)

Bandy

Barthis

Those are awesome!

Also,  I saw your question here, and I had forgotten to ask you exactly what you meant.

Maybe the organization is the people who the contestants go to, then they’re used to rescue criminals?

Do you mean the organization is those who collect the contestants from their planets to bring them to the Culling? Sorry, I just wanted to make sure I understand, because it sounds like a really cool idea, and would fit in with the opposing criminal parties (Andor vs. B-whats-his-name). 😀

I am torn about the leaderboard!!!

I’m probably with whatever you said, gathering the eight to capture criminals and have them join the EU.

Ok, good! But If y’all have any other ideas, I’d like to hear them; I’m still not sure I’m satisfied with that plan.

And B’s name doesn’t have to start with a B, it can begin with whatever — I think. Unless “B” seems to be the best, I dunno 😛 And thanks for explaining about Mr. B! You condensed it a lot better than I could’ve, LOL

And for your characters outfit, I’d chose B. What is up with this letter?! (My name starts with a B, we have Mr. B, we have outfit B…) Costume A is really cool, but it seems rather complicated and techy and spacy, if you take my meaning. B is simple, stylish, and more Egyptish. BTW, Ancient Egypt was such a great choice for a planet! I’m doing American Wild west, and another as mountainous country based off of folks who live in high mountain regions.

 Wingiby, you are so smart! Please, let’s do that!

*cheeky smile* I know, aren’t I?

So now Andor is good? Is he good for the entirety of the book, or is he bad then turns good ( I think that is the better of the two options)? So Mr. B is “the greater evil” per se.

Yeah, he’s bad then turns good toward the end. 😉

So, if it’s okay with everybody I am going to develop one more main character

Go for it!

THE LIVING BATTLE

Great idea! Thanks! But I know we had the Final Battle at the very end, and I thought that was hand to hand combat. But maybe it’s where they divide up into two teams, so see how they get along with teamwork?

THE MECHANICAL BATTLE

Perfecto.

I just kinda morphed everything together. I know somebody had mentioned that we still have to do real animals for the Living battle because of Wingiby’s hamster (Ahem… still cracks me up), so I incorporated real fighting and animal (hamster) fighting into that.

Aw, thanks! And I figured that if y’all don’t want very large animals, then for a change they could fight dangerous insects or small creatures (hamsters, etc) for a extra test on skills.

Bartram Kobe

Ooo! Another cool name! You guys are name machines. Now, uh, *twiddles thumbs nervously* if… we do do a backstory… uh…. Maybe we don’t have to? I mean, some criminals just do what they do. They all have a reason, but sometimes we don’t know. I mean, bad kings wanted more power just because they had selfish hearts like all human beings.

Maybe, though, at the end, it is revealed that B’s motives were actually quite close to Andor’s — and aha! Eureka! What if A and B are related?! I also had an idea for a showdown between A and B: what if, at the end, they fight it out in the arena used for the Cullings, and Andor kills B? That’s when B reveals why he wanted to be the top crime lord.

Just blurting ideas, LOL, so not everything has to be used. If you don’t want to do it, just shout it down! 😉
